Unfortunately,  the weather took a bit of a turn for the worse.   The showers are lingering longer than the forecast predicted four hours ago.   I am located in Dewitt and it is raining lightly.   This cell is supposed to move east and will probably hit parts, if not all, of the the TT course.  There is a 40-50% of these showers continuing through the evening.  Given the high humidity and the lingering showers, I don't think the roads will dry out.  Combine that with temps in the low 5 ...Continue Reading

Was the P.S. hinted to me or Dale? Anyways thanks for the update and welcome back! Btw I chose to go get an oil change and tire rotation (Jeep not bike) and will try to stay dry. As the Slow and Easy East leader for Thursday it again looks like rain but will send an update closer to the ride. I plan on leading the "Dale 24(30) mile'" and would appreciate Marlene and the others who have been leading the other groups to let me know if you would like to again this week weather permitting. And yes I have the ...Continue Reading

Hi Everyone,This weather is amazing…so much rain…so little sun.  I’m starting to develop mold…I think.  Mike is out of town at a meeting and I just returned from a weekend in Annapolis for a family wedding.  I discovered a new phenomena down there…*/sun and warm temperatures/*…I was very content in shorts and short sleeved shirts.  I can’t say that for here.  I think I have reached my fill of our weather…and I’m looking for it to change.  PLEASE. The first thing I did after getting hom ...Continue Reading

Well, if the forecast can be trusted this rainy April weather should clear out of the Chittenango area by 4:30pm this afternoon.   At which point it will be a cloudy, 52 degrees with an 11 mph East breeze for the next 3 hours or so.    This East breeze will provide a nice push for the first 5 miles.   And I'm thinking the roads should dry out as well.I'll post an update later this afternoon.At this point, we are still a GO!BrianTime Trial Directore/Part-time Meterologist727-1458 *From:* Brian Go ...Continue Reading

Hi EveryoneLooks like another day of rain here in the great metropolis of Syracuse.  Keep an eye out for notification later today as to the status of the ride.Neither Tony or I can be there today but I know we have a great group and there will be experienced riders to take our place.  Last week Glen Larson stepped in for me and when I spoke to him on Saturday he was willing to do it again.  Thanks Glen.   Keep dry. Mike ...Continue Reading

I am ride leader for Wednesday June 7th ride from Marcellus Park. I drove the course (OCC map Mar-4) today to assess ride-ability. The ride is moderately hilly. The shorter 20 mile route has you traversing Rose Hill - up & down between NY 174 and US 20. NY 174 is a major part of this ride and the road surface conditions are not the best. Also there is not really a shoulder, perhaps a foot or so but I don't recommend riding there. The heavy rain has caused some silt from run-off to collect near the shou ...Continue Reading

 The forecast for tomorrow evening's TT is looking sketchy again.  Whaaat!  After boasting about how we never get cancelled for the Tuesday night TTs, we may be looking at two cancellations in a row.  I must have really ticked off the weather gods. Forecast calls for a 70-80% chance of rain and/or T-storms with temps in the mid-50s.   Regardless of what happens tomorrow, we will be moving the location of the Time Trial for the following two weeks (June 13 and 20th) to the location of t ...Continue Reading

I am interested in the relaxed fit short sleeve top – how do they fit? I am a large in Under Armour compression and performance tops – will the Voler tops run true to size or do I need to size up?

As you can see everyone had a great time. Thanks once again to: Rolland for a deeelicious barbecue, although he did refuse a thank you kiss from one of the bikers; Al Storrings Rolland's right hand man; Don Butler and his son handling registration. Maybe we'll see you next year??? ...Continue Reading
